  • A Molecular Marker Set Combining a Retrotransposon Insertion and SSR Polymorphisms Is Useful for Assessing Diversity in Vitis

In the present study, we developed a marker set to differentiate Vitis species, grapevine varieties or clones belonging to the same variety. This novel marker set combines, in four PCR amplifications, the presence/absence of a remarkable retrotransposon, Tvv1-Δ3460, inserted at its single locus and the SSR polymorphism present within its two LTRs. By studying a collection of Vitaceae accessions, we showed the prevalence of two allelic forms of Tvv1-Δ3460 - one of which was partially truncated - in Vitis species. Out of the twenty-five studiedVitis species, the insertion of a Tvv1-Δ3460 element was detected in twenty, including Vitis vinifera. The homozygous vs heterozygous state of the element insertion was determined by amplifying the empty site. Additionally, each Tvv1-Δ3460 LTRs included a microsatellite sequence useful for designing markers based on LTR length. The LTR-SSR markers distinguished most of the fifty-two cultivars and revealed polymorphism within five of the seven varieties studied.

  • Pinot Pedigree Diagram
    PINOT PEDIGREE DIAGRAM No fewer than 156 western European grape varieties make up this huge pedigree of natural crosses, with savagnin, gouais blanc and pinot playing the major roles. Given the number of varieties that are currently unknown (?), this pedigree is just one of the possible interpretations of all direct parent–offspring relationships that have been discovered by DNA parentage analyses (Pinot and teroldego, which have a grandparent–grandchild relationship, are included to illustrate the unexpected link between Pinot and syrah). It strongly challenges the commonly assumed independent origins of western European varieties and argues in favour of a small core set of founder varieties that have given birth through natural crosses to the significant biodiversity we know today. For the sake of clarity, trebbiano toscano and folle blanche appear twice in the diagram. Gatefold_Pinot.indd 1 23/07/2012 15:10 ? Gänsfüsser ? Chatus ? César ? ? ? Pougnet Sérénèze Furmint ?

    Licence No 58292 30 Salamanca Square, Hobart GPO Box 2160, Hobart Tasmania, 7001 Australia Telephone +61 3 6224 1236 [email protected] www.livingwines.com.au Wine Talk: February 2014 The newsletter of Living Wines: Edition 42 Welcome to 2014 and to the 42nd Edition of our regular newsletter! It seems only yesterday that we started importing natural wines from France, but it is now more than seven years! More and more of our wines are sulphite-free as we try to find those dedicated winemakers who will not compromise by adding sulphites to preserve the wine. Something happens once you start to drink these wines. Admittedly not everyone gets the taste but if you do then, once you start to drink well-made wines without sulphites, its presence becomes a barrier in other wines. Our winemakers rely on the quality of the fruit, the structure of the tannins and their understanding of what is in the wine to ensure that these wines remain fresh and lively in the bottle. Try the wines from Le Petite Gimios, Domaine Milan (an increasing number of their wines are free of sulphites) and Michel Guignier to see just how vibrant sulphur- free wines can be. We only have five packs for you this month as we have decided to cut back on shipping our sulphite-free range until the weather cools down a little. We have a special pack of the delightful Champagnes of Roland Piollot from the Côtes des Bar in the south of the Champagne region (see separate story about this region and these wines) including the rare 100% Pinot Blanc cuvée.

  • Domaine Des Huards Cour-Cheverny & Cheverny
    Domaine des Huards Cour-Cheverny & Cheverny (CA sales only) Domaine des Huards has been in the Gendrier family since 1846. In the 1950s, the family farmed 10 acres of vines, mostly Romorantin. In the 1960s, more parcels were planted as their focus on the domain’s viticulture increased significantly. In the 1970s, Michael, the seventh generation Gendrier, quit using chemicals in the vines and moved in an organic and then biodynamic direction, receiving certification in 1998. His son Alex grew up with biodynamics and is now full time at the domain with Michael, helping to manage its 94 acres of vines (along with 91 acres of forest and fields, plus a herd of sheep). The domain is in Cheverny, an appellation of close to 1,600 acres in eastern Touraine, about a third of the way from Tours to Sancerre. It’s also in the tiny appellation of Cour-Cheverny, which currently has a vineyard surface of a mere 130+ acres dedicated solely to the rare Romorantin (Chevnery, the sister and overlapping appellation, is reserved for a range of other Loire varieties). All of Huards’ vines are within 850 meters of the winery, meaning that the grapes arrive to the press freshly hand-harvested—they do not buy any outside fruit—and from vine to bottle every step is done as simply and transparently as possible. Ferments are spontaneous, stainless steel is preferred for upbringing because it’s the most neutral, and the only addition to the wine is a small amount of SO2. There’s no fining and only a light filtration at bottling.

    Evidence for a Sympatric Origin of Ribolla gialla, Gouais Blanc and Schiava cultivars (V. vinifera L.) G. de Lorenzis1,*, S. Imazio2, L. Brancadoro1, O. Failla1, A. Scienza1 (1) Dipartimento di Scienze Agrarie e Ambientali - Università degli Studi di Milano, via Celoria 2, 20133 Milano, Italy (2) Dipartimento di Scienze Agrarie e degli Alimenti - Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia, via Amendola, 2, Padiglione Besta, 42122 Reggio Emilia, Italy Submitted for publication: November 2013 Accepted for publication: January 2014 Key words: Fingerprinting, geographical origin, relationship, SSR, Vitis vinifera Ribolla gialla is an autochthonous grape variety cultivated in Friuli Venezia Giulia (Italy) and in Slovenia, and probably originated in Eastern Central Europe. Just like Ribolla gialla, the Gouais blanc and Schiava cultivars also appear to have originated in the same geographical area. To verify this hypothesis, a pool of varieties probably sharing the same historical and geographical origin were taken into account. The fingerprinting, by 35 SSR loci, of Gouais blanc, Ribolla gialla, Schiava grossa and Schiava lombarda (synonyms of Schiava bresciana), is presented and the correlation among historical, geographical and genetic information of these cultivars was investigated. Gouais blanc and Traminer, already suggested as key varieties in the development of European grape diversity and as parents for some French varieties, interestingly enough seems to be linked to Ribolla gialla. The putative parentage was verified using 58 microsatellite markers. The genetic results suggest a common geographical origin for Gouais blanc, Ribolla gialla and the Schiava group: these cultivars appear to be related through sympatric origin. The hypothesis of Ribolla gialla as a progeny of Gouais blanc and Traminer was ruled out.

  • Aglianico from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Aglianico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aglianico (pronounced [aʎˈʎaːniko], roughly "ahl-YAH-nee- koe") is a black grape grown in the Basilicata and Campania Aglianico regions of Italy. The vine originated in Greece and was Grape (Vitis) brought to the south of Italy by Greek settlers. The name may be a corruption of vitis hellenica, Latin for "Greek vine."[1] Another etymology posits a corruption of Apulianicum, the Latin name for the whole of southern Italy in the time of ancient Rome. During this period, it was the principal grape of the famous Falernian wine, the Roman equivalent of a first-growth wine today.

From Greece it was brought to Italy by settlers to Cumae near modern-day Pozzuoli, and from there spread to various points in the regions of Campania and Basilicata. While still grown in Italy, the original Greek plantings seem to have disappeared.[2] In ancient Rome, the grape was the principal component of the world's earliest first-growth wine, Falernian.[1] Ruins from the Greek Along with a white grape known as Greco (today grown as Greco di Tufo), the grape settlement of Cumae.

Most of the old varieties we are growing are not French hybrids “A History of Wine In America” – Thomas Pinney Controlled hybridizing of native American varieties with European varieties went on back at least to the early nineteenth century in America. When the French imported millions and millions of American vines for rootstock during the phylloxera outbreak they refered to grapes like: LeNoir, Norton, Herbemont and others simply as American grapes or American hybrids. After the phylloxera blight was under control in early 1900s, the French started to experiment with more complex crossings using Some of the American genetics to produce new grapes like Chambourcin, Seyval, Chelois and others. When these vines were brought to the U.S.A they were called French hybrids to distinguish them from the old American hybrids.
